Only knifed an <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tiny.gif' /><!--endemo--> once and that was the night NS first got released to the public, mind you that was all knife just me and the onos I don't think it knew how to attack me tbh but then NS had only just come out.
Knifed loads and loads of gorge/skulks but then who hasn't tbh.
Only knifed a fade once but that was after Mythril and worked it over with a shotty. I ran over and took an swipe an got the kill.
Can't remember If I have knifed a lerk but I did knife a marine when stopcomander mode was a bit of a problem <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The knife is more of a comical tool for me because I usually have it replaced with a sword, so I usually only duel with other rines which looks VERY funny. I've only gotten 1 knife kill on a fade, he was attacking the cc and I was almost dead anyway so I knifed him in the back like 6 times, he must not have been paying attention to his health, though, because he didn't even start to turn around I don't think, I can't remmember. It was 1.0x I'm sure. My first welder kill was 1.0x also. On tanith I was welding the RT closest to the wall in the dble rt room. I saw a skulk coming to me out of the corner of my screen, so I turned and it fried before it could get a second bite off. I rarely use melee much as rine.
knifed quite a lot of onos and fades before..mostly because of good luck..
i remmebered a fade blinking towards mee as he was runnin away from the main attackin team..and i jetpacked against him...i knife him....and he fell down..dead
another funny scene i remembered..was a onos that run..he got cornered by us...and we knifed him to death (he was a hive 1 onos..so no stomp.. :X)
I got a sweet elevator kill on a fade back in 2.0, he was all "WTH?". Heh.
Took down an onos by myself, he was busy with a phasegate and decided to focus on it before he went after me, must've been weakened by the turrets or something, I don't even remember what gun I had, but in the end, I knifed him. Poor one-hive sense Onos, I really felt for him. :p
then there was this time I knifed a res node, then a D chamber, then another res node, and no one came to kill me. It was sooooo cool, etched forever in my memory. Think about it - a res node has like 1000 hp and an onos has only like 700. Yeah, it was way cool.
Actually, I suck with the knife. I can never hit gorges (even shooting, I have to unload a whole lmg clip, and my pistol just to try to kill it). knife is the last of the last options, and if I have to pull it out, im already dead.
I once welded an onos in 1.04 (eclipse marine spawn) when he got stuck.
I took down lots of skulks in the past. I once went on a knifing rampage and got like 10 knife kills before I died. And no, I wasn't using cheats back then..
telefragging an onos, that's classic, or getting one stuck in a turret and having your rines build it, then watching and laughing your head off as the onos struggles helplessly and dies to 1 turret that's stuck in it's chest. ^^

What you actually mean is, you get the fade to the verge of death with LMG, Pistol, HMG, GL, whatever, and then stab at it and claim the kill as "skilled" or "funny". It's not, it's a bloody kill just like the rest of them, and considering 99% of the damage is done with other weapons, claiming it as a knife kill is pretty weak. Now if you did 100% of the damage with a knife, then you deserve bragging rights, but if not.... we don't care. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> Agreed.
